Gylfi Sigurdsson

[Lecter]

i dont thing gylfi would be too overpriced at 55k, look at what he will bring to the team, something we have been sadly lacking... goals from midfield. he will also be moving the ball around more intelligently.
i can understand fsg wanting to be careful with their expenditure, but now they are going to cut off their nose to spite their face

we are only in this "lets be very careful how much we spend on a player/wages" due to some of the previous piss poor signings. if we hadnt spunked on adam, hendo, carroll and drowning then we would have paid what it took to secure gylfi, and we wouldnt be pissing in the wind again...

Cole and Aquilani are just as big (if not bigger) drains on our finances

[RedReet]

Which is probably why we are being so careful now.

If we offer £70k in wages and he flops here, no big club will obviously want him and no smaller club could afford him so he'll probably end up off on loan with us subsidising until his contract runs out. Makes sense IMO.

There is always a risk in every transfer, but his career trajectory is very promising, I will put my neck on the line and say that Spurs are the on to a winner here, very disappointed.

Agree with that.

Hes going to be a very good player and long term I think its a great buy for Spurs

That said I dont think hes worth £70K per week as things stand today, I'd pay £40-50K per week max

However I do feel he has the potential to be worth more than £70K per week

Its a really tough one for the club, I can understand why they would baulk at those sort of wages

I suppose we move on to the next player but I genuinely feel players of Sigurdssons level/quality are about as good as it gets for us at this moment in time and to be priced out of that sort of deal is concerning

So, was Gylfi our only (reasonably well) linked target? Other than Dempsey, obv.

We need more people going to BBQ's with Rodgers, or it's gonna be a long summer.

Just do what I'm doing... set your expectations really, really low.

Who does he think he is, Eden Hazard?

[dom9]

Anyone with the word 'official' in their username has to be a fake.

If speculations are correct we offered £55k per week which is more than fair amount for a player that only had good 6 months in PL.

No doubt he had the potential to be a good player but at this point it is just that potential.

I have no problem with us passing on him as long as his 'replacement' will be the player with the same or better qualities.

That said, If Rodgers really wants him I'm pretty sure FSG would relax their stand in this case and let him sign subject that his wage demands are no higher than what Spurs are allegedly willing to offer.
